would these NBA players receive the same criticism if they were white?

i think one of the most clear ones of all time is how luka (who i think is a future MVP one day btw) and harden were treated by the media.


i remember Bill Simmons randomly talking about "cheap assists" a thing he completely made up when comparing the two in luka's like second season

They’ll call you a fake militant and “woke” like we’re at a DeSantis rally. Be prepared.

This. There’s a lot of revisionist history about Harden’s time in Houston. He was beloved by the media and fans his first few years there. People on The Coli might have hated him, but he was the NBA darling pretty much everywhere else. The tide didn’t start to change on Harden until those multiple brutal playoff exits, and not being able to make it work with Chris Paul.

Top of the table
actually if russell westbrook was white he'd still be viewed for his "smarts"
you still hear great things about ricky rubio even though he hasn't shot over 40% from teh floor in like 4 years or 30% from three
